About Meadow Lodge Home Care Service
We provide care at home in Knottingley and across the Wakefield district. Those we support include older adults, people living with dementia, adults with learning disabilities and autistic adults, people managing mental health conditions, people living with sight or hearing loss, and younger adults. We also support people living with eating disorders. Working across that range means we are careful about who we send as much as about how they are trained. Skill matters and so does manner. A carer can complete every task on a plan and still leave somebody feeling managed rather than helped, and that difference is the job rather than a detail. Somebody who has struggled with an eating disorder does not need a carer with views about food, and an autistic adult does not need one who improvises. Reliability is the other half of it. We keep our rounds realistic, we decline patterns of care we cannot properly staff, and we give notice when something has to change. Our overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. We ask the people we visit how we are doing, and we give more weight to the uncomfortable answers than to the kind ones, because those are the ones that lead to anything actually changing.
